our actual results may differ materially from our expectations or
projections.

The following factors, among others, could cause actual results
to differ materially from those described in these
forward-looking statements: the occurrence of any event, change
or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of
the Merger Agreement; the outcome of any legal proceedings that

transactions contemplated thereby; the inability to complete the
proposed Business Combination due to the failure to obtain
approval of the stockholders of GPAC, or other conditions to
closing in the Merger Agreement; the inability to maintain the
listing of GPACs common stock and warrants on The NASDAQ Capital

Business Combination; the risk that the proposed Business
Combination may disrupt current plans and operations as a result
of the announcement and consummation of the transactions
described herein; the inability to recognize the anticipated
benefits of the proposed Business Combination, which may be
affected by, among other things, competition and the inability of
the combined business to grow and manage growth profitably; costs
related to the proposed Business Combination; changes in level of
spending of government (including Medicaid), commercial and
private payors on the services which Sequel provides; the
consolidation of managed-care organizations and their third-party
payors; increases in controls over healthcare costs; the risk of
care incidents and associated negative publicity; the risk of
legal complaints and proceedings and government investigations;
changes in applicable laws or regulations, including expected
regulatory changes in healthcare laws following the recent U.S.
elections, especially the expected repeal or changes to the
Affordable Care Act; the inability to comply with licensing or
other regulatory requirements, laws and regulations; the intense
competition in the industry; the inability to profitably expand
into new markets; cybersecurity risks and the failure to protect
patients health information; the failure to comply with proper
billing practices; the possibility that Sequel or GPAC may be
adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or
competitive factors; the risk of loss of key personnel or
inability to recruit talent; and other risks and uncertainties
described herein, as well as those risks and uncertainties
discussed from time to time in other reports and other public
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
SEC) by GPAC and Sequel.
